After the Hou family's mistress went crazy, she became the favorite of the entire capital.

Chapter 48
"what?"

Who did he kill?The third prince?

How dare he!
"Young madam, the fifth...the fifth master is not awake now, so I don't dare to make the decision. Young madam, please give me an idea."

Ah Si didn't know that Shu Yan already knew the fifth master's identity, so he could only carefully ask her to make the decision first.

Shu Yan was silent for a moment, "If the East Palace has solid evidence, then today is not as simple as a test. Since there is no complete evidence, we have a chance to escape. The third prince was killed. Considering the prince's cautious and suspicious temperament, now I'm afraid not even a fly can fly into the East Palace. There is no need to contact the people you have placed in the East Palace for the time being. If you want to inquire, just ask Mr. Dong and tell me when you get the news."

Ah Si was shocked in his heart.

The young lady is really capable, and she can guess that they have placed people in the East Palace.

He told Ah Si to take good care of He Wangzhou, and he went to see He Zhengyuan.

Compared with Lin Yi's illustrious military exploits, Jing'an Hou He Zhengyuan seems a bit mediocre.In his eyes, He Wangzhou was not the best, nor was he the one he cared about most. If something happened, Shu Yan was afraid that he would abandon He Wangzhou.

She still has to make second-hand preparations!

He Zhengyuan did not return to the dormitory, but was still in the study.Shu Yan thought he was still working, but when she stepped in and met He Zhengyuan's eyes, she immediately understood that He Zhengyuan had been waiting for her.

"Father."

"Has Wangzhou fallen asleep?"

Shu Yan nodded, "Go to sleep."

He Zhengyuan's tone was slightly raised, "Have you really fallen asleep?"

Shu Yan's heart suddenly sank.

Now that the world is at peace and the capital is peaceful, everyone has forgotten that He Zhengyuan was also a man who went to the battlefield with a sword and received military honors.

After thinking for a moment, she knelt down.

"Father, he is injured."

"Who hurt?"

Shu Yan said bluntly, "It's the East Palace."

There was a coldness in He Zhengyuan's eyes. "How do you know it's the East Palace? Aren't the people here today from Dong Guiren?"

Shu Yan's eyebrows twitched. Sure enough, the reason why He Zhengyuan acquiesced in her being unrestrained in front of Eunuch De was because he wanted to see what the other party wanted to test.

"Father, I don't know, but the little father-in-law brought by Eunuch De today is the little Quanzi who lives by the prince."

He Zhengyuan's eyebrows rose, "Oh? Is he the eunuch who was rumored to be caught red-handed by the Crown Princess when he was fooling around with the Crown Prince?"

Shu Yan almost couldn't hold it back.

I didn’t expect Marquis Jing’an to be such a gossip.

"No wonder you dared to say that at that time. No wonder Eunuch De was so embarrassed. No wonder the little eunuch calmed down after he came out to persuade him."

He Zhengyuan just finished speaking, and his tone suddenly turned cold again.

"So now Dong Guiren is getting together with the prince again?"

Shu Yan didn't answer.He Zhengyuan is not a fool, and he naturally understands the relationship.

"What did Wang Zhou do? He forced Dong Gong to take action, but he still wanted to test like this?"

There was obvious anger in He Zhengyuan's voice.

"Because of the issue of refugees outside the city, some people's interests have been affected. My husband left the city this time because of my request. Unexpectedly, he was targeted by someone, and that's why he was injured."

When Shu Yan raised his head again, his face was already covered with tears.

"I was the one who harmed Wangzhou. If my father wants to punish me, I will admit it. If he wants to kill me, that's fine. But Wangzhou, I hope my father can be saved."

She spoke so righteously, but He Zhengyuan sneered continuously.

"Wangzhou has no future, he is also the legitimate son of my Marquis of Jing'an, so I will naturally protect him. You almost killed him, and you just said this lightly, do you agree?"

He Zhengyuan banged the table loudly, but Shu Yan just continued to kneel there, neither humble nor arrogant.He became more and more angry in his heart, "Here comes someone, come with the family law."

*
Madam Liang had just rested when she heard her servant say something at the door.She called people in, but before she could ask her questions, someone was already gloating and saying, "Madam, just now the Marquis asked for help, and the young lady was beaten."

Liang was really happy, "Beat him to death?"

"No, he was sent back to Jinyuyuan."

Mrs. Liang lifted up the quilt and asked, "What mistake did that woman make to make Mr. Hou so angry?"

The maid told her what she had found out, and then told her in a more embellished way.

After learning that Shu Yan had offended Eunuch De in the front hall, that He Wangzhou came back drunk and no one recognized him, and that he was finally carried back to Jinyuyuan by his servants, Mrs. Liang wanted to look up to the sky and laugh.

"Even people in the palace dare to offend things that are not worthy of publicity."

Mrs. Liang snorted angrily, "I thought he would be punished like this just for drinking flower wine once. Now that He Wangzhou is so embarrassed in front of Eunuch De, he still doesn't want to scold him! How can he be so biased?"

The mother-in-law beside her persuaded her nicely: "Madam, don't worry. The eldest son is so drunk that he doesn't know his affairs. Even if the Marquis wants to punish him, he can't punish him. Now that he has lost all his disgrace in the palace, the Marquis cares about his face so much. Wait. Even if he sobers up tomorrow, he won't be able to escape punishment."

After hearing this, Mrs. Liang felt much better, but she was still angry.

"That bitch, why don't you just beat him to death!"

The mother-in-law snorted coldly, "If she has gained a good reputation now, the Marquis can't really treat her. Without all that money, she, Shu Yan, is nothing."

Ms. Liang rolled her eyes and said, "Go to the Liang family tomorrow and ask them to find a few people to visit the shop named after Shu Yan."

The mother-in-law understood, "I know, I will do it early tomorrow morning."

Jinyuyuan.

Xi'er's eyes were red and she carefully applied the medicine to Shu Yan.

"The Marquis is so cruel. The young lady is a woman, his daughter-in-law, and half a daughter. How could he hit you with such force?"

"If the eldest master knew about it, he would be heartbroken to death."

"No, I'd better find a doctor for the young lady to take a look. If the injury is not corrected, it will leave a scar."

Xi'er put down the ointment in her hand and hurriedly went to find the doctor.

Shu Yan pulled her back, the pain making her covered in cold sweat.

This body is still a bit too delicate.

"Where are you going to find a doctor in the middle of the night? It's just a couple of beatings. There won't be any scars."

Besides, He Zhengyuan only hit her two or three times just for show, which was many times better than in the General's Mansion.

Xi'er didn't know this, she just felt sorry for Shu Yan.

Her skin was white and delicate, and she had blood marks on it in the past two or three times, which looked shocking.

"Usually the Young Master would feel distressed for a long time if his fingertips were burned red by the teacup. If he knew..."

"okay."

Shu Yan interrupted her and looked at He Wangzhou, who was still sleeping on the bed, feeling anxious.

Xi'er sighed, quickly applied the ointment to her and left.

Shu Yan endured the pain in her back and slowly sat up. After being silent for a while, she spoke to He Wangzhou from a distance.

"The Third Prince's matter will definitely make a big fuss in the East Palace, and I don't know what's going on with the Fifth Prince."

Marquis Jing'an doesn't know if he can be relied on.

After thinking about it, Shu Yan wrote a letter and gave it to Ah Si to send to Nan's house.

　Is there anyone else who can read 555? I know my writing is not good. Can you leave a message and let me know if there is anyone who can read 555 again?
